others on baby lust

If you search for the term "baby lust," you'll get a handful of articles with that phrase for the title. Articles on Salon and New York Times, while their titles are similar, offer perspectives from two different sides of the coin. A mother of four occasionally wants a fifth baby, while the NYTimes writer begins her article with examples of things she did during the six years it took her to conceive baby number one. This second article, not surprisingly, touches on all the crazy things women do to try to conceive. What's interesting about the article is the historical thread; women doing wacky things to try and get knocked up is hardly new.
